Greenhouse and Wood Resin


Add solid and liquid resin to the game so we have a way of despite all the choped tree at the beginning of the game. Also, it's possible with this mod to grow your own trees in greenhouses (mod settings) and aim for an automated solid biofuel production ! Have fun and don't hesitate to give feedback !

i Long term wood sink

Thanks for the mod and for providing a wood dump.
Once you got to solar/nuclear, there's little use for Rosin Resin either, while wood still piles up when you expand your factory.

What about using resin or rosin resin in some way to make it end up in solid fuel? That way you could still consume wood in the end game.

Possible ideas for recipes (all in chemical plants):

  • 9 solid fuel + 2 rosin resin => 10 solid fuel
  • 90 light oil + 4 resin => 10 solid fuel
  • 2 rosin resin => 1 solid fuel

I think one additional recipe should be enough, and it think it should be a net loss regarding burn value. As you still turn wood into something useful, it should still feel good to do so, but you shouldn't feel like missing out if you are out of wood.

Hey Merikolus !

What a wonderful idea !
Personally, I don't use resin on a long-term basis (only backup powerplants if the factory grows too much for solar)...
But it's true that it's quite an interesting approach! Thanks for the suggestions! I'll see if adding charcoal to one of the recipes wouldn't be a good idea, just to add that solid touch.

Thanks for your positive reaction!

I just tried it out. At first, I frowned upon the coal requirement, but using the recipe actually feels good and satisfying.
Thanks for the fast update!
